What are some of your favorite albums by Rush?

[bluzman61]

I have them all and I like them all. My first concerto was "2112".

Thanks. "2112" IS quite impressive.

So was the concert and the next five concerts I went to of Rush.

Wow, you saw them SIX times. I'm envious. I saw them just twice, but they were two of the best concerts I've been to, and I've probably been to 70 to 80 in my lifetime.

I lived in OKC and saw bands weekly usually for five to six bucks...Bad Co, Thin Lizzy, Judas Priest, Ten Years After , Deep Purple, Frank Zappa some real good acid parties...

Wow!

La Villa Strangiato is one of my favs..

FANTASTIC. It game me CHILLS! Rush - THE best rock trio, EVER. And I believe THIS song MAY be my favorite rock instrumental, all-time.

Not an expert at all. Just one of millions of fans.

I've seen them 6 times too in 3 different states, between 1975 and 1988.
Front row for the 2112 tour in 1976.

You're FAR too modest, Angelo. You are THE Man for any info on Rush.

Power Windows was good, but I think Alex stopped being creative at that point.

Maybe their most unusual album, Caress of Steel

Beneath the noble bird
Between the proudest words
Behind the beauty, cracks appear
Once with heads held high
They sang out to the sky
Why do their shadows bow in fear?
